From Our Research Team:

A Compact Amp with an Arsenal of Sounds!

Well, sure, when you think of VOX amps, you think about those original combo amps that fueled the so-called British Invasion of the 1960s. Naturally, VOX has crafted amazingly accurate reproductions of their best sellers, such as the AC30. But not every guitar player wants or needs the vintage sound of a classic VOX design. Proving they are just as innovative as any other manufacturer (and maybe even a bit more), VOX has released the DA15, a compact, affordable little beauty that comes complete with all the bells and whistles. There are 11 distinctive sound styles available when you plug into the top panel. They include everything from crisp and clean to big and mean, and they're all available with the simple turn of a knob. VOX engineers carefully selected voicings that duplicate the most in-demand guitar sounds of all time, then added a full complement of onboard effects that range from simple reverb to complex multi-effects like Chorus + Delay. There's even a Tap Temp button that makes it easy to set the delay time or modulation speed. Use the amp by itself (it's got an 8-inch speaker built-in) or connect it directly to a mixer or recording setup via the speaker-emulated line output.

VOX DA15 Digital Guitar Amp Features at a Glance:
  • Compact design with 11 modeled amplifier voicings
  • 11 onboard effects plus noise reduction
  • 24-bit A/D and D/A conversion
  • 8" VOX original speaker built in
  • Full complement of ins and outs

Compact design with 11 modeled amplifier voicings
In the 1960s, guitarists were happy if they had access to reverb and tremolo. The fuzztone was still not readily available back then. Imagine if those guitar players had access to an amp like the VOX DA15? They'd have thought they'd died and gone to guitar heaven. Despite the amp's small size, there's a full complement of pro quality sounds onboard that can cover any style of music from pop to country to blues and even speed metal. VOX engineers carefully selected the classic and modern tones that would give today's players the versatility they need to go from clean chordings to crunchy power chords to full-out solo excursions. Not only did they succeed, but they also kept the DA15 to a mere 22 pounds.

11 onboard effects plus noise reduction
Today's players want effects, and lots of them. While VOX only included 11 different effects, they carefully chose the ones that would deliver maximum impact, allowing players the freedom to experiment with a surprising variety of effects and combinations that will add a special polish to any finished track. Once you start to mix and match the 11 distinctive sound styles with the onboard effects, you'll quickly realize that there's a lot of sonic territory covered here. There's also onboard noise reduction available so the amp is remarkably noise-free when you're not playing or during those quiet passages.

24-bit A/D and D/A conversion
The standard for any pro quality audio gear is 24 bits these days. So it's no surprise that the 15-watt VOX DA15 uses super clean 24-bit A/D and D/A converters, which means that the signal going in is the signal coming out - unless you decide to bend, fold, spindle and mutilate it in all sorts of cool ways. The 24-bit audio also assures you that when you run the DA15 into your mixer or recording setup you'll get squeaky clean signal-to-noise ratios. That's a good thing, trust us.

8" VOX original speaker built in
For practice sessions or even in the studio, the VOX DA15's onboard 8" speaker produces a deceptively big sound thanks to the VOX original speaker, which is voiced specifically for the compact enclosure. For late night practicing, plug in a set of headphones and the speaker is automatically muted (your family and neighbors will appreciate it).

Full complement of ins and outs
The VOX DA15 is nothing if not well thought-out. You can run it using the onboard speaker. Just plug your guitar into the input jack and start playing. Plug in headphones for private practice sessions. For those times when you want to get a really sweet guitar sound in the studio, simply connect up the speaker-emulated line output. There's even a footswitch input jack in case you want to add the optional VFS2 Dual Foot switch.


VOX DA15 Digital Guitar Amp Features:
  • Total of 11 onboard modeled guitar sounds from clean to crunchy to high gain
  • The compact, 22 pound enclosure is patterned after the classic VOX look
  • 11 onboard effects and combinations accessible by rotary knob
  • 15-watt onboard amp
  • 8-inch VOX original speaker built in
  • 24-bit signal processing (both A/D and D/A conversion)
  • Guitar input jack, foot switch jack, emulated line and phone outs
  • Fully programmable combinations of amps and effects
  • Closed-back design is normally found only on pricier amps
  • Optional foot switch lets users choose between two programs

The VOX DA15 Is a modern take on classic VOX Themes with features today's players want!

You Simply Cannot Beat This Amp for the Value

I bought this amp after doing a LOT of studying available amps under $160. I am an electronics development engineer so I am very fussy about sound quality. I guarantee this amp is quiet (no noise), ... read more [+]clean (no audible distortion at reasonable sound levels), easily plays plenty loud in a large den, and has enough features to make anyone from a beginner to a pro happy. In its category (15W) I cannot imagine how you could be disappointed. And at under $130 delivered, Sweetwater, I THANK you! close [-]
